Ignored files are deleted on Glitch on export to GitHub

hey @mayeedwin - I tried the steps that you described, but I can’t replicate the file being deleted. I do however see that the file is not shown in the lefthand side filetree, which is a known issue that we have in our editor right now where files that get ignored by .gitignore do not show up in the filetree. This is something we will work on fixing, but it may mean that your file has not actually been lost, it’s just not visible in the code editor.

If you delete the line in your .gitignore which applies the the missing file, and then reload your browser, does the file reappear?
